Re: garage pics

Built 4 in last 20 years, 2 very recently. 24x26 is about the smallest workable floorspace for us. Even little trucks like the 6 foot bed tacoma leave very little room for a bench/storage with this size. Door heights of a min 8 foot should be considered if any of your vehicles are lifted. Biggest issue is construction type. Not much you can do about concrete floors but with complete wood, stick built garages here can now run in excess of 50K-60K. Metal ones about half or less due to prefab and fast assembly. Be sure to consider the feasibility/cost of water and power plus finishing touches such as good lighting. Steer clear of all those cheap amazon leds by BBounder and others as they totally fail in 24 months or less. Only those with replaceable 4' LEDs may be the way to go. Lastly add at least one window, one man door and easy to open main car doors. Power door openers are a must as you may already know. There's some pics of last 2 garages in link below with the 54 in them showing size and space and layout and power door opener options that may help.
